Kilburn Street corner, Belfast
Kilburn Street runs from Moltke Street to Frenchpark Street. This derelict house and shop are at the western corner of the latter. Kilburn Street had been laid out by 1901 but, by the end of WW1, it had only nine houses. Nos 1-95 had still to be built. Most of the houses remain occupied. This dereliction is an exception.

The Kilburn Street Hall, Belfast
A hall, in Kilburn Street, looking similar to a non-denominational hall but really part of the Belfast City Mission. The mission, a Calvinistic organisation, was founded in 1827 “to reach the poor, the churchless and the careless”. It has many halls in Belfast, Dundonald and Newtownabbey.
